Elise Stefanik (R-Willsboro) voted for the legislation, which was defeated 301-121. “I was disappointed that the bill failed,” said Stefanik.

Westport Central kiddos meet neigh-bors Kindergardeners enjoy trip to Crane Valley Horse Rescue By Kim Dedam STA FF W RITER
WESTPORT | Character education programs at Westport Central School start with meeting local farmers. For 14 years, soon after Crane Mountain Valley Horse Rescue settled in the Champlain Valley, the kindergarten class has gathered in a circle to learn how important it is to care for pets and animals. At first, the group shared stories about their own pets, their hands raised in earnest to talk. Some have cats and dogs, one or two or four; others have chickens. “What are some of the things we do when we take responsibility for our animals?” Crane Mountain co-founder Nancy Van Wie asked the group of youngsters.
And the hands went up again. “We give them food,” one student said. “Water,” another said. “Change the litter box,” another child answered. “Yes, keeping your pets fed and watered and their areas nice and clean is very important,” Van Wie replied. “A doctor,” another student said. “Yes, pets have to see a veterinarian for vaccinations and for check-ups,” Van Wie said. And horses, she explained, have to see a dentist. “A dentist came here yesterday and all of the horses had their teeth cleaned,” she said of ongoing routine on a farm with big animals. And when a blacksmith, or farrier, comes, she said, they also have their hooves trimmed. Some of the horses at Crane Mountain were rescued from places where they didn’t get proper food or water, she explained, and arrived at the farm severely underweight or sick or injured. » Field trip Cont. on pg. 2

ELIZABETHTOWN | School boards from both Westport Central and Elizabethtown-Lewis Central schools reviewed the final merger report together last week. They accepted the final report completed by consultants and a 20-person merger committee over the past 10 months. The presentation completes the work of Castallo & Silky LLC, consultants hired to compare all aspects of each school district, including financial, debt structure, tax rates, staffing, program information, graduation and testing levels, enrollment rates and transportation. » Merger Cont. on pg. 7

» Field trip Cont. from pg. 1 Some had sores in their mouths from lack of dental care, which meant it was hard for them to eat. And when a horse’s hooves aren’t trimmed, the nail, like a toenail, she explained, curls under their foot making it hard to walk. “Horses need a flat surface to carry their weight,” Van Wie said. Bringing horses back to good health means taking good care of them every day, she said. Farm Manager Chauntel Gillilland, a former student at Westport Central School, introduced the class to a miniature horse who came to the farm underfed and very thin. And its teeth were in very bad condition, making it hard for the horse chew. The small horse, Gillilland said, had nearly doubled in weight with proper care in a clean place. The children watched with interest as the small horse shook its mane and looked for a place to roll in the sand. Van Wie talked about Buck, another horse on the farm, who they rescued from a slaughter auction many years ago. A full-grown stallion now, Buck had severe lice and skin illness as a foal and was very thin. He grew strong and healthy, and now plays an important part in Crane Mountain’s work helping people overcome disabilities and difficulties from trauma in life. Rescued horses at Crane Mountain become the rescuers, Van Wie said. “We take in horses that people aren’t taking responsibility for or when people can no longer care for them,” Van Wie said of the rescue process. And when horses are healthy and strong, Crane Mountain helps find some of them find new homes. “Can you ride the horses?” one young student wondered out loud, hoping. “Some of them are trained to ride,” Gillilland said, allowing that lessons are important for both a horse and the person learning to ride. In short and simple sentences, the students learned they can make a difference by caring for pets and for all animals. Westport Kindergarten teacher Julie Bisselle organized the first Character Education visit to Crane Mountain 14 years ago. She said many graduates from Westport Central School remember the visit and some still volunteer to help on the farm. ■

Willsboro Farmers’ Market tables fill for summer Artisans and fresh market produce arrive at the Gateway Park Pavilion on Thursday morning By Kim Dedam STA FF W RITER
WILLSBORO | Farm fields revitalized from springtime cold are sending fresh food to farmer’s markets around the county. Here, the season opening in early June under the rustic pavilion at Gateway Park on Route 22. Willsboro farms and artisan craftspeople make up the market collective, where Market Manager Laura Therrien says they make 95 percent of all decisions together. With about 12 vendors, several new this
year, Therrien has seen the stalls expand and flourish in 13 years. Her tile craftwork and jewelry, Adirondack Native Spirit, provide an anchor to tables and open shelves with wines, greens, fresh vegetables, barbeque smoker, hand-turned bowls and wooden treasures, seedlings, juices and fresh bread organized under the cedar roof. Tim Pierce from the Essex County Veteran’s Association was at the market last week, providing market vouchers for area veterans. Pierce travels to various markets throughout the region here and in southern Franklin County, but said the vouchers are also available from their office in the county seat. Seed to Table’s market produce was planted in the Mountain Lake greenhouses months ago. And Andrea Connor staffs the booth in Willsboro with Jason Davis, who managed to get pumpkins started in the ground in April. An offshoot of Essex Industries in Moriah, Seed to Table was established five years ago, Connor said, and has kept its presence in
several Farmers’ Markets for about three years. Their organic pear and apple juices are pressed in Port Henry, fruit picked from an orchard beside one of Mountain Lake’s residential homes. “All Mountain Lake Services residents do every step of everything,” Connor said. They utilize The Hub at Essex kitchens for packaging and processing the fruit juices and other products. “And it’s neat to be part of a community process,” Connor said, “We’re elbow-to-elbow with other chefs.” Wood turner Ron Bauer, a retired engineer from Willsboro, has been working with burls and fine cuts of wood to produce one-of-akind bowls for about 12 years, in earnest. His crafts business, One Good Turn, it seems, is inspired by the wood itself. “I just love to see what kind of beautiful design comes out of the wood,” he said of the complex spalting often found inside of old maple tree pieces.
“It’s really my passion,” he said, of creating new objects from parts of old Adirondack forest. Some new items this year are hand turned wooden sushi platters and scroll-scored bowls used to hold balls of yarn. Buckberry Farm from Bucks Corners here has had a presence at the Willsboro Farmers’ Market since the start. Farmer Bryan Briscoe talks with market shoppers about the mix of greens, cabbages and garlic scapes. The chilly spring proved touch-and-go for the first greens, but the cold spells pushed flavor deep into the crisp leaves and early herbs. A big part of the Farmers’ Market is the chatter, vendors sharing news or new ideas with their customers, talk about the weather and the bugs or what creatures are sneaking from the farm fields. Triple Green Jade Farm in Willsboro is selling in six area markets this year, rebuilding an old barn of their farm property one loaf of bread or cardamom roll at a time. “We are making progress,” Kim Rivera says with a smile as the loaves around the table sell fast, packed into paper bags that contain their fresh scent. » Market Cont. on pg. 11

Thoughts from Behind the Pressline
New light on community newspapers
Last week’s tragic shooting at the Capital Gazette in Annapolis, Maryland has shed new light on the close ties By Dan Alexander between local commu• PUBLISHER • nities and their hometown community paper. Typically left to toil away at their trade with local issues, it’s always been the larger metro papers that have been viewed to operate in a position of greater prominence covering national and international matters, presumably leaving them more susceptible to acts of violence. But those of us in the trade realize the close working relationship with members of the community and the open door policy most community newspapers operate under puts them on the front lines. It’s almost unheard of at a community newspaper to conduct active shooter drills or have locked doors and/or security guards at the front entrance. According to the U.S Press Freedom Tracker, 13 journalists have been physically attacked in the United States so far this year while 45 journalists were physically attacked in 2017. I think it’s fair to say we all witness the growing anger and frustration in our society these days. Forget politics for a minute: You would be surprised at some of the phone calls — and even verbal abuse — our staff are subject to over everyday stories like a published real estate transaction, a police report or even the incorrect spelling of a local school athlete’s name. I have had threats left on voicemail both at home and the office; I’ve had an arrow left in the door jam with a message, and I was even accosted at church once for a letter to the editor that appeared in the paper. None of those confrontations come anywhere close what occurred in Maryland last week, but the issue at the heart of the shooting was no more significant than the examples I’ve used here. All of this speaks to the changing attitudes, mental health issues and the assumption of a civil society where people can disagree but still resolve those issues in a peaceful manner. The frustration and anger generated over major issues seems to affect much smaller issues once society accepts the notion that violence, harassment and civil discord are accepted methods of getting things your way regardless of being right or wrong. I’ll doubt you’ll be seeing any security guards at the front doors of The Sun anytime soon, but we must realize these flashpoints can happen even in the smallest of communities. ■

The Sun Editorial
Newsroom attack brutal reminder of everyday threats Five people are dead after a gunman stormed the Capital Gazette newsroom in Annapolis last week. We watched the tragedy unfold from our own newsroom. Like others in this hardened business, we were aghast, but not surprised. “Sooner or later, it was inevitable all of this would come to a head,” sighed one of us. And then we went back to work. The deadliest loss of U.S. reporters in a single incident in recent memory was not politically motivated, but rather the result of a deranged reader who had a long-running grudge against the daily newspaper. Despite the scorn and hostility heaped on the national press corps on a daily basis by a hyper-polarized public and antagonistic White House, local journalists are actually more vulnerable to actual violence, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists — particularly when covering protests and demonstrations. “If someone has a beef with you, and you’re a local reporter, it can get ugly in a hurry, because you’re accessible,” Joel Simon, executive director of the Committee to Protect Journalists, told NBC News. While the North Country is a relative-

NCCC tech program has been delayed long enough
To the Editor: I was glad to read that North Country Community College (NCCC) will be working with Ti-Alliance to develop an applied technical skills program. For decades, for a variety of reasons, post-secondary education in this country has been producing graduates with degrees of questionable value, few job prospects and mountains of debt. Meanwhile, industry has been calling for more skilled technical employees. So this program is very much the right idea. However, the supervisors need to keep a close eye on this. I am not confident of the actual commitment level here. Imagine how much further ahead our region would be if NCCC had started this when the supervisors first called for it five years ago. The article describes the “next step” as hiring a consultant to study feasibility. That may be

ly sedate place, threats happen here, too. We’ve dealt with several scares this year following the publication of controversial stories — including a phone call we took seriously enough that we reached out to the authorities to put a patrol on our building. Running parallel to this extreme polarization of public sentiment is the decline overall discourse in this country, which is now gutter-like — even when it comes to the most pedestrian of topics. The default reaction to something people fi nd disagreeable is now accusatory, harsh and uncivil. All of this has made our jobs as reporters exponentially more difficult. Like us, the Capital Gazette is a small town community newspaper with the same mission, core values and team members: Local folks selflessly dedicated to making their communities a more vital place. Oftentimes, this not glamorous stuff. Most of our time is spent sitting in uncomfortable chairs in local government meetings. It’s reporting on school budgets and from the sidelines of high school football fields in bone-chilling weather. It’s sifting through reams of government records in an attempt to keep elected officials

Rank choice voting should be implemented
To the Editor: The June 23 Sun editorial, “Rank-choice voting, a concept worth exploring,”discusses a potential solution to our dysfunctional partisan politics that has recently been implemented state-wide in Maine. Under rank-choice voting (RCV), voters rank all the candidates in order of preference. There is evidence that RCV: • Encourages voter turnout, since citizens have more choice than a single front runner they may not like. • It shifts incentives away from negative campaigning as candidates look beyond their base.

But every once in a while, we get to share the story of a normal person doing something extraordinary. And that makes it all worth it. We’re not the elite living in enclosed bubbles, but rather regular folks with families who want to get home to our kids and a sincere desire to better our communities and enrich our collective fabric. We are not naive enough to believe this tragedy will lead to a change in public discourse. But we hope you will consider the ordinariness of our lives the next time you think about hurling a hyperbolic comment on social media over some perceived slight; hollering into the phone or submitting that spittle-flecked letter to the editor. The loss of Gerald Fischman, Rob Hiassen, John McNamara, Rebecca Smith and Wendi Winters is not only a loss for their friends and family, but for the nation as a whole. We mourn for their loved ones and will keep them in our hearts forever. ■ — The Sun Editorial Board
Limits the effectiveness and amount of money spent by single-issue organizations that typically finance negative ads. Despite wide discontent with our current political discourse, few solutions have been proposed, and RCV should be tried more broadly. Dominic Eisinger, Keene ■ •
Slow down in work zones — lives depend on it
To the Editor: Summer is here and our highway departments are now engaged in multiple projects. This is the time of year where the men and women of our local highway departments switch from plowing and sanding our roads to repairing the damage done by Old Man Winter. It is also the time of year when these workers are at a greater risk from work zone intrusions. It is important that drivers slow down when they see work zone signs.

injury or even death to those men and woman who work so hard to maintain and improve our roads to keep us safe. I recently prosecuted a work zone intrusion case where a driver swerved around a stopped vehicle and drove past the fl ag man holding a blinking red stop sign. Two other vehicles traveling in the opposite direction were forced off the road and the lives of workers were put at risk. Thankfully, no one was hurt. As the Hamilton County District Attorney, I take work zone intrusions very seriously and am dedicated to ensuring that our highway workers stay safe. Therefore, I ask everyone to take this issue seriously and to proceed slowly and cautiously through work zones. We need to give our highway workers a break and do all we can to help keep them safe. Let’s all share the goal that these workers return home, unharmed, to their family and friends at the end of the day.

Cont. from pg.
There are 40 findings in the final report, which is available from each school and online. And with those fi ndings are some 20 recommendations.
FINDINGS — NOT RECOMMENDATIONS
TAX ESTIMATES
Consultants estimate that using just 1 percent of the incentive operating aid for 2019-20 could deliver a tax rate for a merged district of $13.31 per thousand dollars of real property value. That estimated tax rate stabilizes school tax rates for residents of the ELCS district (current 2017-18 tax rate $13.32) and it provides a $1.31 per thousand reduction for Westport Central district residents (current tax rate $14.63). The incentive aid does not include the additional 90 percent state capital project percentage rate for any work the new district might look to do in building repairs and/ or in building a new facility. Capital building funds are available for 10 years at the 90 percent state match. For example, if the new district looked to spend $50 million for a new facility, the state would pay about $45 million of that project.
If approved, the new district would launch in the 2019-20 school year. Consultants recommend a start with all existing courses in place at both schools. Recommendations also suggest that a merged district also begin to develop more elective course options for students. The merger plan suggests children from Pre-Kindergarten through Grade 6 would stay in their current buildings . ELCS currently has a Pre-K program, Westport would gain one with a merger. Middle school students — grades 7 and 8 — would attend classes in Westport’s school building. High school students grades 9 through 12 would attend school in the ELCS facility. If the communities turn down the opportunity to create a new district, the process cannot be revisited for at least one year and one day, according to consultant Bill Silky. ■
It was not the job of consultants to tell the districts whether or not to merge and create a unified, new school district that blends students and programs from ELCS and Westport. The task, consultant Bill Silky said to the boards, was to paint a picture of each district for its neighbor to review. The recommendations, he said, could provide a road map: a way forward for a new district. “If you decide to go ahead with a merger on July 1, 2019, this is not going to be perfect,” education consultant Alan Pole said of the process that unfolds when schools bring together individual programs. But the research shows that ELCS and Westport school districts are more similar than they are different. cutting more jobs and cutting programs, such Members of each school board shared their and programming.

Help animals find forever homes at SPCA open house The North Country SPCA is excited to announce that we are in the process of preparing for our By Kathy Wilcox annual open house which will be on Sat• COLUMNIST • urday, Aug. 11. We are looking for craft vendors to set up shop at the event. For more information on preparing as a vendor, please contact Jill Shpur at 518-873-5000 or jill@ncspca.org. Last year’s event was a huge success, and we expect this year’s open house to be fun for all! Our furry friends are excited about the chance to strut their stuff and hopefully find a forever home. Mark your calendar for this exciting event, and more details will follow soon!
Our featured pet this week is LILLY, a Boxer and Terrier mix who came to us in dire straights. She was missing hair, covered in fleas and had skin infections as well... she was just an itchy, scabby wreck! Thanks to the gentle care and attention of shelter staff, this perky pup is now on the mend and she is looking so much better. Lilly is a 7-year-old girl who is a real social butterfl y. She simply cannot get enough attention and she is quickly becoming a volunteer favorite. She walks politely with other dogs but we think she would rather be an only child. We have not yet “cat tested” her, but we’re guessing a home with cats would probably not be a good match. She is very sweet and a such a little lady in her kennel. Lilly really deserves a chance to be the queen of someone’s castle - why not stop by and meet her today? ■ — Kat Wilcox’s weekly column works to publicize the shelter’s adoptable pets.

that would reunite children separated from their families at the southern border. “I anticipate that will be coming to the floor in the month of July,” Stefanik said. The lawmaker is also a co-sponsor of the Hurd-Aguilar bill. “If we’re able to bring to that to the floor, I think that would be a step in the right direction as well,” said Stefanik. Some 2,300 children have been separated since the administration’s “zero tolerance” crackdown took effect in April. But as public outrage mounts, Trump has proven to be an unreliable partner, and Republicans struggle to craft an immigration fix. The compromise vote was postponed twice, and a conservative bill was defeated late last month. Hundreds of thousands of protesters marched across the U.S. on Saturday in
The compromise fix included $25 billion of appropriations for President Trump’s border wall as well as technology upgrades, modernization of ports of entry, as well as a pathway to citizenship for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals recipients. “We’re looking at all options,” Stefanik told reporters following in event in Queensbury last Friday. “I think the key here, ‘How can we get something done?’ So obviously that compromise bill was disappointing in my experience.” President Trump signed a executive order last month ending the administration’s family separation policy, and a federal judge in California issued a injunction last week ordering children to be reunited with their families within 30 days. Stefanik has also co-sponsored legislation

opposition to the administration’s immigration policy, including hundreds in Plattsburgh and Glens Falls. “We are asking why would Stefanik, Trump and the Republicans do such a barbaric, cruel thing to children?” said Joe Seeman, an activist and co-organizer of the event in Glens Falls. “The only answer is scapegoating.” The lawmaker said she understands the concerns of those protesting. “I agree with them that we need to pass standalone legislation that addresses family separation,” she said. Trump claimed Saturday that he never pushed for House GOP support on the failed compromise bill despite tweeting that lawmakers should support the bill three days earlier. And late last month, he told Republicans to stop wasting their time on the bill until after the midterm elections generated a “red wave” to bolster majorities in Congress.

FOR OVER
Nearly half the Republican caucus opposed last week’s bill, illustrating sharp divides within their own conference. “Negotiating with the Freedom Caucus is not the best way to approach passing bills on the floor, so I think that was a mistake in this process,” Stefanik said. The lawmaker also wants to address agricultural-related immigration issues, citing the impact on farms throughout New York’s 21st Congressional District. “Every farm that I visit — seasonal or yearround dairy farms — labor is one of their top concerns, and we need to have some type of status for those agricultural workers,” she said. “That has a big impact on our farms being able to survive” Stefanik will be in the district this week, and Congress will convene next week for three weeks before their summer recess. ■

» Market Cont. from pg. 3 “We’re bringing an old farm back to life with good bread.” For vintners at Hid-n-Pines winery, the 18 or 20 varieties of wine they make range from white to red, sweet to dry. “People do ask a lot about the grapes,” vintner Richard Lamoy says. Grape vines trunk out each year and take time to establish. “The white wines do pretty well,” he said of sales. “But I would say demand is evenly split between red and whites.” A Willsboro Farmers’ Market band is every week this year, Therrien said, “Dave and Jim, are our own musicians.

Guest viewpoint
The numbers add up on Trump impeachment By Edward Pontacoloni GUEST COLUMNIST
This following guest column was written in response to The Sun Publisher Dan Alexander’s “Thoughts from Behind the Pressline: A Deceptive Master Plan” published in the June 16 edition. Although I may be a bit tardy, allow me to accept your invitation: You are nuts. If “something doesn’t add up,” it is because you are missing a number of factors from your equation. Let’s start in the middle where you assert that Donald Trump was “once a highly acclaimed, successful entrepreneur.” Actually, Donald Trump has, by many accounts, always been a demonstrable liar, cheat, fraud and a conman. He is the epitome of mendacity. He is a serial bankrupt of such poor creditworthiness that his businesses and projects have been denied traditional American bank financing and been obliged to resort to foreign banks and possibly to money laundering for Russian oligarchs. Do your numbers still not “add up?”
Let’s see, “historic accomplishments in regulation roll backs?” You mean like exposing consumers to greater risks of financial fraud and our nation to another big-bank related “great recession?” You mean like freeing polluters to poison our air and water? You mean like taking our public lands and surrendering them to rapacious exploitation by fossil fuel companies? Or maybe you mean his rollback of health insurance for a substantial portion of your fellow Americans or his rollback of the basic necessities of education, food and shelter for the least able of your countrymen or the threats to our Social Security and Medicare systems from the looming budget deficit created by his rollback of taxes for the wealthy. Perhaps you are still unable come up with the right numbers to explain the “calls for impeachment, negative press… and entertainers cheering profanity-laced insults.” This failure may be due to some other miscalculations on your part. You tout the “unemployment lows” and the “booming economy,” but Trump inherited a growing economy from Obama
and whatever accomplishments you may think he has achieved are not truly his own, no more so than the wealth that he inherited from his father and purportedly stole from his brother in order to initially fund his “successful” entrepreneurship. The area where Trump’s economic policies have actually achieved “historic accomplishments” is more accurately the U.S. budget deficit, which is expected to reach almost $1 trillion by the end of his first term. We won’t know until then how drastic the consequences will be for our economy, but the projections are dire, and the probabilities deserve at least some consideration in your arithmetic. Giving Trump any “credit” for the present economy doesn’t overcome his abysmal failures in international affairs: from alienating our closest friends and allies such as Canada and Germany, to cozying up to autocrats and dictators such as Putin and Duterte. You naively believe that the recent “sit down with the Hermit Kingdom Chairman” was a diplomatic success, but you ignore the fact that North Korea acquired its nuclear tipped ICBMs and the ability to reach the U.S. under Trump’s watch and that Kim is still considered an ex-
traordinary threat to our national security. Kim will not surrender his nuclear weapons. Trump got played. Tell me how the United States is greater today than it was in 2016. I’ll tell you how it is not. Never in our history have our rights and liberties, our democratic institutions, come under a greater attack from within: from Trump’s calling our free press the “enemy of the people,” to his denigration of the religions and nationalities of minority Americans, to his championing of racial enmity, to his rejection of due process, to his inhumane abuse of innocent refugee children, to his conspiracy with a foreign government to undermine our democracy. Never in our history, except for the time of our Civil War, has this country been more divided than as it is now. And never before has our nation stood so alone on the world stage. Trump’s touted “mayhem” is divisiveness and incivility, and the rest of the world pities us our loss of honor and prestige. Add those several factors to your equation and see if you still do not understand the calls for Trump’s impeachment, etc. ■ — Edward Pontacoloni lives in Lake George
